Introduction • The explicit method is a true dynamic process. It was originally used to simulate high-speed collision problems.• It is used to solve the dynamic equilibrium state of structures.• During the solving process, inertial forces play a decisive role.• Unbalanced forces propagate in neighboring elements in the form of stress waves.• The stable time … Read more
